007 Micro Scuba Tank Prototype


00:00:00hey it’s Greek a jacuz Roux here with a

00:00:03prototype video this is very very early

00:00:07stage of something I’m trying to build

00:00:09basically it is a miniature scuba tank

00:00:13and it features these two really small

00:00:18oxygen tanks that are originally used

00:00:22for oxidated water which I guess there’s

00:00:26this like health benefit to drinking

00:00:29seltzer water with oxygen so they sell

00:00:34these oxy plus original octopus

00:00:39cartridges it doesn’t say anything about

00:00:42the size so when I bought these it was

00:00:44really a shot in the dark but I got like

00:00:47four boxes a 10 so 40 of these things

00:00:50for like twelve dollars was a good deal

00:00:52and I figured what the heck why not

00:00:56and I also picked up off eBay these I

00:01:01think there’s six gram cartridges or

00:01:04something

00:01:05they’re adapters for co2 so you can put

00:01:10this on your paintball gun and instead

00:01:14of running off of large co2 tanks you

00:01:17use these small six gram cartridges or I

00:01:21forget what size they are exactly but

00:01:26this is the perfect size all I need to

00:01:31do is just extend this so that when you

00:01:36screw it down it punctures the seal also

00:01:39need to cut off this piece of plastic

00:01:42here which I don’t really understand the

00:01:44purpose I guess but it will come off and

00:01:47then it should adhere I’m sorry it

00:01:52should be punctured by this as long as

00:01:54there’s enough pressure so there might

00:01:56be some trial and error but eventually

00:01:58I’ll get it and the same thing with the

00:02:05the co2 cartridge for making an airtight

00:02:11seal

00:02:12I’m going to have to screw this into

00:02:15some type of tea valve that will go up

00:02:18to a mouthpiece possibly something maybe

00:02:22I’ll modify the H the I’m sorry the

00:02:28innovations all triflate so basically

00:02:31what I’m gonna have is these two

00:02:35connected at the center I’ll just show

00:02:40you real quick so I’ll put a co2

00:02:42cartridge in here oxygen cartridge

00:02:45actually so Oh two cartridge so won’t go

00:02:50in there and you close that down and

00:02:54then you’ll have your other one

00:02:58connected at a tea and I wish I had

00:03:04something to hold it up but so that is

00:03:07good too a tea like that and then you’d

00:03:10have your co2 tank kind of hold in the

00:03:16middle and sorry not your co2 tank your

00:03:19mouthpiece so that it can so you can

00:03:24breathe from it and then that’s

00:03:26basically it so this might be a larger

00:03:30like a bulkier version of what the end

00:03:33product is going to be but if I can pull

00:03:36this off it’s going to be really really

00:03:38interesting double-oh-seven James Bond

00:03:42had something similar to this in one of

00:03:45his movies so I’m going to try and post

00:03:48a picture of what I’m basically trying

00:03:52to make it looks really similar to these

00:03:55cartridges the oxygen plus is basically

00:04:00this but almost his exact size and he

00:04:04just puts it he just some puts it on his

00:04:07mouth and then he’s able to breathe

00:04:09underwater for a short amount of time

00:04:11just as an emergency purpose this

00:04:13wouldn’t be something that you’d go

00:04:15diving with or something this is more

00:04:18for secret agents or something so I

00:04:22think would be really interesting if I

00:04:24could pull this off

00:04:27so like I said this is just a really

00:04:29early-stage prototype more like an idea

00:04:33at this point but I think I’ll be able

00:04:37to pull it off if I can get a piece that

00:04:40can connect these two and I can drill

00:04:42down and do something similar to my co2

00:04:48adapter that I used for this thing here

00:04:54that I showed in another video so if I

00:04:57can get this type of thread coming up to

00:04:59a tee

00:05:00and connecting these two it would work

00:05:03just like that and then we’ll see so

00:05:07thanks for watching leave a comment if

00:05:11you have any experience with this type

00:05:13of stuff and you think this would be a

00:05:15waste of my time maybe you should let me

00:05:17know so but if I think this should work

00:05:20based off of what I’ve been able to do

00:05:24with other things so thanks for watching
